Stories from the State
Advocates from across the country submit their patient stories about 24/7 care, large corporate insurers, and rural healthcare access in order to highlight the importance of access to care.
I had a hart attack a few months ago. I was in the Our Lady of Lourdes. It didn’t take long for me and my family to learn that we were being taken care of by the this best loving caring doctors and nurses.
James D
I live in a rural community with a small hospital and the only other hospital anywhere near here is 40 miles away. That means that the nearest emergency room besides our small hospital is also 40 miles away. Our community depends upon it.
